Beginning a few years ago, Disney underpaid its cast members in Disneyland by a wide margin.
Somewhere between the union contracts, California law, and Disneys policies, many thousands of people were underpaid for their work at the theme park.
The settlement covered back pay and came to $233 million.
As the author notes, it's interesting that the company was quibbling about a dollar or two and hour - all the while the CEO made $31 million last year.
Wealth inequity and corporate malfeasance meet up on this one.
